RAJAN GUPTA J.

Petitioner seeks concession of regular bail in a case registered against him under sections 323, 332, 353, 307, 224, 225, 120-B, 34 IPC & section 25, 54, 59 of the Arms Act vide FIR No. 0231 dated 17.06.2017 at police station Sector 5, Panchkula. It has been urged before the court that no role has been attributed to petitioner in the commission of crime. He has been arraigned as an accused on the basis of disclosure statement made by co-accused Joginder @ Joga. Thus, he is entitled to bail. Plea has been opposed by learned State counsel on the ground that offence is serious in nature. In case enlarged on bail, petitioner is likely to intimidate the witnesses.

An incident occurred on 17.06.2017. Complainant ASI Tara Chand alongwith other police officials had taken one Deepak, an accused in another case, to hospital in Sector 6, Panchkula. As they were coming out of room in the hospital, associates of accused-Deepak threw some poisonous substance in the eyes of police and fled.
